Researchers at the Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences at "Federico II" University in Naples report that lower plasma LDL cholesterol is associated with a higher risk of incident type 2 diabetes in adults followed ...
Phys.org / Novel mRNA therapy curbs antibiotic-resistant infections in preclinical lung models
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators have reported early success with a novel mRNA-based therapy designed to combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Tech Xplore / New polymer electrolyte design promises safer, longer-lasting solid-state lithium batteries
A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated a simple yet effective method to extend the lifespan of all-solid-state batteries—by simply stretching film-shaped electrolytes to improve safety and performance.
Tech Xplore / Innovative materials boost stretchable digital displays' performance
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) power the high-end screens of our digital world, from TVs and phones to laptops and game consoles.
Phys.org / Helping to grow plants in space for NASA missions to the moon and mars
Imagine biting into a crisp, garden-fresh salad and savoring juicy strawberries for dessert. But instead of your backyard, you're gazing out at a stark lunar landscape, Earth hanging like a precious blue marble in the inky ...
Phys.org / Meteorite crater hosts methane-making microbes—a clue to life on Mars?
Scientists have discovered living microbes producing methane in the fractured rocks deep inside Sweden's Siljan impact crater, offering insights into Earth's earliest life and the search for life beyond our planet.
Medical Xpress / 'Cognitive Legos' help the brain build complex behaviors
Artificial intelligence may write award-winning essays and diagnose disease with remarkable accuracy, but biological brains still hold the upper hand in at least one crucial domain: flexibility.
Phys.org / Starquakes reveal red giant's turbulent history and rapid spin in black hole system
Astronomers from the University of Hawaiʻi Institute for Astronomy (IfA) have uncovered the turbulent past of a distant red giant by listening to its celestial "song." Subtle variations in the star's brightness suggest that ...
Phys.org / Polar ice melt offers unexpected solution to a global climate disaster
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a system of Atlantic Ocean currents that redistributes heat and nutrients between the tropics and the North Atlantic, is one of the planet's tipping points. That means ...
Phys.org / Michigan cherry farmers find a surprising food safety ally: Falcons
The cherry harvest wrapped up months ago. But in northern Michigan, some growers are already anticipating the spring resurgence of a tiny raptor that could benefit next season's crop.
Medical Xpress / Drug developed for inherited bleeding disorder shows promising trial results
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is the second most common inherited bleeding disorder worldwide, affecting one in 3,800 persons. HHT's hallmark symptom is chronic nosebleeds, which often occur alongside other ...
Phys.org / Exceptional points alter the order of lasing modes
Exceptional points (EPs) are non-Hermitian singularities where two or more eigenstates coalesce, resulting in the eigenspace collapsing in dimensionality. Over the past decade, researchers have uncovered a wealth of exotic ...
